Relationships are wonderful . . . until they're not.

Stop the dysfunction of unhealthy relationships and learn biblical ways to set boundaries--and, when necessary, say goodbye.

Is it unloving or selfish to set a boundary with family members or friends? Are Christians ever called to walk away from a relationship that’s no longer safe or sustainable? #1 New York Times bestselling author Lysa TerKeurst deeply understands these hard questions in the midst of relational struggles.

After thousands of hours of counseling intensives and extensive theological research that transformed the way she defined healthy relationships, Lysa is now more committed than ever to loving people well without losing the best of who she is.

In these pages, Lysa will help you:

  • Understand the five factors to remember when implementing healthy boundaries.
  • Determine the appropriate amount of personal and emotional access someone has to you.
  • Stop being misled and emotionally paralyzed by wrongly interpreted or weaponized Bible verses that perpetuate unhealthy relationships.
  • Be equipped with effective boundary-setting tools, such as realistic scripts and practical strategies for healthier communication.
  • Be empowered to say goodbye without guilt when a relationship has shifted from difficult to destructive.
  • Receive therapeutic wisdom you can trust directly from Lysa’s Christian counselor Jim Cress, who weighs in throughout the book.

You'll be relieved to learn that boundaries aren't just a good idea, they're a God idea.

Look for additional biblically based resources and devotionals from Lysa:

  • Forgiving What You Can't Forget
  • It's Not Supposed to Be This Way
  • Uninvited
  • You're Going to Make It
  • Embraced
  • Seeing Beautiful Again

Biblical Reasons for Boundaries

Biblical Reasons for Boundaries
Another good book concerning boundaries. What I appreciate about Lysa’s book is all the scripture references she uses to help with the concept of boundaries. Many Christians feel that to be Christlike means to be a doormat and allow others to mistreat or use them. She explains the scriptures and shows how right in the book of Genesis God had boundaries.I also appreciate the various scenarios she uses and how we can identify with them and apply her suggestions.Although this book feels like it’s written more for a troubled marriage, you can still apply it to most any relationship.

I wish I could give a rating higher than 5 stars! If you are needing boundaries in your life which we all need, seeking biblical guidance and understanding...stomping out myths of what society says verses mean and sometimes even the church with out providing proper context and the true meaning...this book is for you! You feel so loved while reading this book and like you are having coffee with a dear friend. It is encouraging and brings truth that truly will set you free with practical applications, examples and stories that we can all relate to in one way or another. Finally boundaries have become clear to me along with the importance that stems from a loving place for everyone involved. I only wish that I would have learned this valuable information in my teen years. You won't regret reading this book!!!

Friend had problems with partner's family behaviour and asked me to get the book to read. Her other half left without giving a reason, and this book had helped my friend heal. It is linked to Scripture and the author's own experience is similar to my friend. Recommend the book, I have even started reading so I can best support my friend.
